Follow the mystery around some options

The teams finish their preparations for a world which starts in just three weeks in Australia and New Zealand. SpainFor example, they play two friendlies before making their Cup debut: on Thursday the 29th against Panama and on Wednesday the 5th of July against Denmark. The rest of the participants are also trying to get to the World Cup in the best possible way.

Right now, things are completely normal. The strange thing is when the federations/selections try to hide everything related to those parties. A few days ago we were talking about a friendly Netherlands team against a team of young men where nothing is forbidden. In this case, they want to avoid, according to the country’s press, that a bad result could be against the players themselves.

If that is so. This Sunday there is a new case: that of the Norwegian team. ‘Dagbladet’ points out that Hege Riise’s students will play a friendly against Portugal about which they also want to avoid knowing anything: anywhere, or when, or the result. “It’s a prerequisite. Nothing should be leaked. Everyone agrees with that. There are FIFA rules that we should not disturb before we start,” says the coach.

Former soccer player Carl-Erik Torp, now a commentator, doesn’t see it as logical: “It’s stupid that you have to keep things secret. I think all it does is create more hope. the secret in tactical and technical matter, it makes sense that such things don’t come out because it can be used as an element of surprise. But I’m not in favor of leaving people behind. I think openness and inclusion is good. “

Local TV2 channel expert Solveig Gulbrandsen points out that the training match against Portugal will be of interest to many. “This will be the first match between Graham Hansen and Ada Hegerberg since England’s Euro play-off last year. There is more interest in this match than you think.”
